Anothr fun romp in Laurell K Hamilton's fast paced exotic and erotic series about a fae princess who has cruel enemies in high places in the fairy courts. She is still attempting to have a child by one of her guards,while working as a detective,trying to keep out of the sight of enemies,develop her magical talents,help an exiled royal fae to become preegnant and fight against an horrific creature ,The Nameless.Its all go in Merry's world!.

This was a good read,but not as good as the first book,a Kiss of Shadows,possibly because we didnt get to visit the Dark Court,also because there were too many long episodes of bickering and sulks among Merry's lovers,which became a little tedious at times.The riproaring set piece at the end against the Nameless,and the re-emergence of lost magical powers made up for this to some extent,and the plot thickens when Merry and her guards learn a desperate secret about the fairy king,who will do anything to prevent his secret emerging.A fun if trashy read,which intrigues enough to make you want to learn more and be immersed in the glamorous if highly dangerous world of these supernatural characters.Read for the Faerie Mythology challenge
